This Mediterranean-style townhouse is situated in Calahonda, in the municipality of Mijas on the Costa del Sol. Built in 1994 and completed to a key-ready standard, the property offers 198 m² of living space across three bedrooms and three bathrooms, on a plot of 790 m². The asking price is fixed at €610,000. The home is south-facing and located within a gated complex with communal pool and gardens, approximately 1 km from the beach as the crow flies. Air conditioning, a sauna and a glass-enclosed conservatory are among the installed features.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Calahonda is an established residential urbanisation between Fuengirola and Marbella, roughly 15 km from Marbella and 37 km from Málaga in a straight line. The nearest beach, Playa de Calahonda, lies about 1 km away. Shops, restaurants and other daily amenities are within close range of the property, which stands in a gated complex within the built-up area.
The house provides three bedrooms, three bathrooms including an ensuite, a fully fitted kitchen, a separate dining area and a glass-enclosed conservatory. Living space totals 198 m². Outdoor facilities include a private terrace, a covered terrace and access to a communal pool and communal gardens. The property is sold fully furnished.
This is not a new-build project. The townhouse dates from 1994 and is offered as an existing, key-ready home in what the listing describes as excellent condition. No construction phase or delivery schedule applies; the transfer can proceed once the purchase process is completed.
The property has no private pool; swimming facilities are communal within the complex. It is a townhouse, so shared walls and community rules apply. The building dates from 1994, meaning construction standards of that period rather than current new-build regulations. No garage, storage room or sea view is listed among the features.

This property fits several recognisable situations. A buyer seeking a permanent residence on the Costa del Sol with enough space for a family will find the three bedrooms, three bathrooms and 198 m² of living area adequate, with schools, fifteen primary and ten secondary institutions in the area, within practical reach. A second-home buyer who wants a lock-up-and-leave base within a gated complex, where the pool and gardens are maintained communally, also matches this profile, particularly given the fully furnished condition that minimises setup effort. Buyers prioritising golf will note La Siesta Golf Club and Club del Sol at 0.6 km and Cabopino golf at 2.1 km. The property is less suitable for buyers who want a private pool under their own control, a standalone villa with no shared walls, or a newly built home under current construction standards. Buyers focused on new-build warranties or modern energy performance should factor in that the house dates from 1994. A car remains advisable: public transport exists with four lines and fifty stops in the area, but the coastal location and distances to Marbella, Málaga and the airports make driving the practical norm. For an investor, the Calahonda rental market is established, with around 3,800 housing transactions per year in the surrounding area indicating an active market.
The house was completed in 1994 and is presented in what the listing terms excellent condition, with photographic evidence showing a spacious living room with leather furniture, an open-plan kitchen-dining-living arrangement and a kitchen with red cabinetry. The exterior photographs show a white façade with terracotta tiles and a courtyard with a fountain and planted patio, consistent with traditional Andalusian residential architecture of that period. Climate control includes air conditioning for both hot and cold operation, which covers year-round temperature management. A sauna is installed within the property. Storage is addressed through fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms. The kitchen is fully fitted, meaning appliances and cabinetry are in place, and the property is sold fully furnished. Buyers should apply the usual diligence for a 1994 building: no information is provided in the data about recent renovation of the roof, electrical installation, plumbing or window frames, so a technical survey is the standard instrument to verify condition. The glass-enclosed conservatory is an addition that increases usable space and can improve thermal buffering between the terrace and the living area. Orientation is south-facing, which supports passive solar gain in winter, though summer afternoons on the terraces will be warm. The community context, communal pool, communal garden and gated access, means exterior maintenance of shared elements is arranged through the community of owners, with associated community fees not specified in the available data.
The asking price is a fixed €610,000 for this existing home; it is not a price-list or from-price situation. At 198 m² of living space, this equates to roughly €3,080 per square metre, on a plot of 790 m². The property is key-ready and sold fully furnished, which affects the total cost of entry compared with an unfurnished purchase. Comparable new-build projects in the wider region start lower, for example from approximately €205,000 in Mijas and €321,000 in Estepona, but those are apartments or different product types rather than a furnished townhouse of this size with a 790 m² plot position. Availability is immediate, subject to the standard Spanish purchase process.
Daily life in this townhouse revolves around a combination of indoor comfort and outdoor living. The south-facing orientation means the terraces receive sun for most of the day, which in practical terms allows breakfast outside for much of the year given the regional average temperature of 18.5°C. The glass-enclosed conservatory extends usable living space into the cooler months, functioning as an intermediate zone between the living room and the garden views. Inside, the layout with three bedrooms and three bathrooms, one of them ensuite, suits a family or two couples sharing, since morning routines do not have to compete for a single bathroom. The kitchen is fully fitted and the dining area is separate, which supports more formal meals, while the open living areas shown in the photographs indicate a practical everyday flow. The urbanisation setting means neighbours are close, but the gated complex adds a layer of access control. The sauna offers an additional wellness option within the home itself. Outdoor seating areas and the communal pool provide recreation without private maintenance responsibility for the pool. With restaurants, cafés, pharmacies and banks all within 2 km, in fact mostly within walking distance of a Calahonda address, running errands does not require long car journeys, though a car remains useful for reaching Marbella, Fuengirola or the airport.
Calahonda functions as a self-contained coastal urbanisation within Mijas, and the amenity data reflects that: 38 restaurants, 15 cafés, 7 pharmacies, 9 banks and a dentist all within 2 km, plus two health centres in the area. This density means daily necessities, bread, groceries, pharmacy runs, a meal out, are covered locally without travelling to Fuengirola or Marbella. Education is available with 15 primary schools and 10 secondary schools nearby, and the English International College lies 7 km away for families seeking international schooling. The area's tourism profile is moderate, with 10 hotels and roughly 2,131 beds, which indicates a residential-dominant character rather than a resort strip, though summer months bring seasonal visitors. Public transport covers four lines with fifty stops, sufficient for local trips along the coast, though most residents rely on a car. The nearest beach is 1.0 km away in a straight line, with a moderate gradient of 5.5% on the route down, walkable for most, but worth noting on the return uphill with shopping or beach gear. The elevation of 55 m above sea level gives the property a slight rise over the coastline, which typically means sea breezes reach the urbanisation.
The map shows the property in Calahonda, Mijas, on the Costa del Sol between Fuengirola and Marbella. Markers indicate the nearest beaches at about 1 km, golf clubs within 0.6 km and Puerto Cabopino marina at 2.3 km, all measured in a straight line. Málaga airport lies roughly 28 km to the east.

Calahonda occupies a middle position on the Costa del Sol between the larger centres of Fuengirola and Marbella, the latter 15 km away in a straight line with nearly 148,000 inhabitants. Málaga, the provincial capital with some 579,000 inhabitants, lies 37 km to the east. This positioning gives residents access to urban services, hospitals, culture, shopping, in two directions, while living in a lower-density urbanisation. Within the region, Calahonda is known as a long-established residential area with a high proportion of international residents, and the market activity of roughly 3,800 transactions per year in the area reflects that liquidity.
Straight-line distances place Playa de Calahonda at 1.0 km, with two further beaches, La Luna-Royale and Playa de Calahonda Riviera, at 1.1 and 1.3 km. Marbella lies 15 km away and Málaga 37 km; road distances will be longer than these figures. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is approximately 28 km away in a direct line, making it the practical arrival airport, while Gibraltar is 68 km away. Golf access is a strong point: La Siesta Golf Club and Club del Sol sit 0.6 km from the property, Cabopino golf at 2.1 km, El Soto Golf at 3.6 km and a par-3 course at 4.1 km. Puerto Cabopino marina is 2.3 km away for boat-related leisure and waterfront dining. Public transport runs on four lines with fifty stops in the locality, and the property is listed as near transport. By car, the A-7 coastal road and AP-7 toll motorway connect Calahonda along the coast, though specific driving times are not given in the data and depend on traffic conditions.

The climate data shows an average annual temperature of 18.5°C, with a swimming season of five months during which sea water reaches at least 20°C, roughly May through October. The elevation of 55 m places the urbanisation on the lower coastal shelf, with a moderate 5.5% gradient toward the beach; the terrain is therefore walkable without serious climbing. This part of the Mijas coast sits between the sea and the foothills inland, and the viewpoint at La Cala de Mijas, 3.9 km away, offers an accessible outlook over the coastline. Rainfall concentrates in the winter half-year, as is typical for the Mediterranean climate of southern Spain, while summers are dry and sunny, conditions that suit the south-facing terraces and outdoor seating areas of this property for most of the year. The glass-enclosed conservatory extends comfortable use of the outdoor zones into the cooler and breezier months.

Three beaches lie within about 1.3 km of the property. The Blue Flag list for the wider coastal stretch includes Del Cañon-La Pelá, La Guardia, Playa Granada, Salobreña and Torrenueva, six flags in total in the broader region, indicating that water quality along this coast is monitored and certified. For recreation beyond the beach, the sports infrastructure is dense: La Siesta Golf Club and Club del Sol are both 0.6 km away, Finca Naundrup at 1.0 km, and Cabopino golf at 2.1 km, with two more golf courses within 4.1 km. Puerto Cabopino marina, 2.3 km away, is the nearest harbour and a known spot for waterfront restaurants and boat trips. The sauna in the house itself adds a private wellness option. This combination of beach, golf, marina and sports clubs within a small radius defines the recreational character of the location for residents.

Placed against current new-build offerings on the coast, this townhouse occupies a different segment. Projects such as Lantana Residencial in Mijas start from around €205,000 and Aquamar in Torre del Mar from €269,950, while Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona starts from €321,000, but these are price-list starting points for new apartments, whereas €610,000 here is a fixed asking price for a completed, furnished townhouse of 198 m² on a 790 m² plot position within a gated complex. Buyers comparing the two routes weigh different factors. New build offers current construction standards, warranties and, often, better energy performance, but usually smaller plots, communal-only outdoor space and delivery schedules. This 1994 property offers immediate availability, more interior volume per euro than coastal new-build apartments in the same bracket, a private terrace alongside a conservatory, and a sauna, but the buyer inherits a thirty-year-old building whose technical condition requires survey-based verification. Locationally, Calahonda sits closer to Marbella (15 km) than Torre del Mar or much of Estepona sits to Marbella, and its golf density, six courses within about 4 km including two at 0.6 km, is a concrete locational asset. Market context matters too: with roughly 3,800 housing transactions per year in the surrounding area, resale liquidity in Calahonda is established, which is relevant for buyers who may want an exit route. The trade-off is urbanisation character rather than town-centre living: Calahonda is residential and car-oriented, unlike new-build projects in the centres of Mijas or Estepona.
